1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Lobectomy has been the standard surgical treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Over the decades, with the dramatic development of radiographic tools, such as high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), and the widespread practice of low-dose helical CT for screening, the number of cases diagnosed with small-cell lung cancers with ground glass opacity (GGO) at early stages has been increasing. Accordingly, mainly after 2000, many retrospective studies and prospective trials have shown that patients with lung adenocarcinoma with GGO have a good prognosis and may be candidates for sublobar resection. Previous studies indicated that HRCT findings including the maximum diameter of the tumor, GGO ratio, and a consolidation/tumor ratio (CTR) are simple and useful tools to predict tumor invasiveness and prognosis in patients with NSCLC with GGO. Thus, sublobar resection may be considered a "standard therapy" for peripheral GGO-dominant small-cell lung adenocarcinomas. Ultimately, some of such tumors might not require surgical resection. A multicenter, prospective study has just begun in Japan to evaluate the validity of follow-up for small-sized GGO-dominant small-cell lung cancer. Lung cancers that do not require surgery should be identified. This study reviewed retrospective and prospective studies on GGO tumors and discussed the treatment strategies for such tumors.
